    What would be the most effective technique to apply and remove this wax?

    Thanks,

    Either spray it directly onto the panel, work in and buff to a high gloss.....OR.....apply to a MF towel and do the same. Pretty easy to use product; just avoid using too much.

    +1 I used it and messages up my second time.

    I sprayed several panels which is not good since it is hard to remove if left sitting there for a few minutes.

    Appreciate the feedback.

    What I am still wondering is, when you spray a panel, do you work the spray wax in back and forth with a applicator pad and then buff off? Much like what you do when applying a paste carnauba wax by hand.

    Thanks,

    No, it's just spray on and wipe off. Not heavy tho, than it becomes a little mission to get it all off..

    Also, you should spray and wipe one panel at a time.
    The wax IMO works amazing. Get compliments all the time when at shows.

    Oh and maybe you should ask optimum of some one with a little more knowledge if using a pad will make it look better.

    You would be better served to use a microfiber towel than an applicator. Fold the towel in half twice, spray one side once or twice, work gently over your paint in a back and forth, not circular. Once it has been spread over the panel satisfactorily, turn your towel to a dry side and repeat the wiping technique to remove excess and buff to a high shine.

    yes i had trouble with it at first i do what rcrew said......my only advice is use a verysoft plush clean mf towel i use a adams double soft. and how ever much you think you should use...divide that by half a little goes a long way and its better to use to little then to much
